Lent is about more than going to church on weekdays and giving up chocolate or social media. It’s also a time to form one’s heart and mind through study and prayer. In Where the Eye Alights, Marilyn McEntyre offers 40 short meditations, based on excerpts from Scripture and poetry, that guide listeners on a devotional journey from Ash Wednesday through Holy Saturday. As in lectio divina - the spiritual practice of reading Scripture repetitively and meditatively - McEntyre invites us to notice words that may give us pause and summon us to reflection.

This unpretentious little book of meditations based on Scripture, ancient hymns, and writings from Church Fathers will nourish the souls of reflective seekers during the 40-day period of Great Lent.
